'Nightmare on Elm Street' Trailer: That Bad Dream Man is Back on That Suburban Street

Learn Freddy Krueger's origin (again) and watch him menacingly drag his hand-claw over a variety of metal surfaces (again) with this new trailer for Nightmare on Elm Street (Again). As much as I'm opposed to this pointless retreading, I do appreciate they made his head look more "hey, I got horribly burned!" than the old look, which was more, "hey, someone threw an entire pizza at my face, and now it's slowly dripping off!"

So that's the origin of his famous striped sweater: turns out he was wearing it under a jacket.
